I wasn't in the mood for hard work today, probably because I'm only 40 pages away from the end of a 1300+ page long Murakami novel and feeling...
Inktense Pencils
InnaBG In Inktense Pencil

Candace In Inktense Pencil
I’ve booked the train tickets and am all set for a trip to the National Gallery tomorrow. Being the neat and tidy guy that I am, that means that...
Kristy Jo
After the big project, I’m back to one and done paintings. I thought I'd go for the inktense pencils as I’ve not used them for a couple of months...
One Rainy Wish
July is looking like a slow month. There's just too much sun at the moment; I get back from my morning walk and I'm to trashed to paint. This is...

We're off over the road for a pub dinner at five this afternoon and I wanted to finish and write up an artwork with plenty of time to spare so I...
No Ma’am: We’re Musicians
Monday’s always a short day for me, so I thought this would be the perfect excuse to take a break from the posterised Newington landscapes and to...
Cammie III
Time to try something new. In that Burne Hogarth book I read about something called sculptural light. It's a light and shade scheme that ignores...
BethR
A few things to do today so I thought I'd have the day off and read a book but the kindle battery died on me during the afternoon so I thought I'd...
Alan Shearer
Lots of stuff going on at the moment so I thought I'd be better off just going for a quick inktense pencil painting today and give the sepia...
The City
After yesterday's experimentation I wanted to use all the lessons from it as quickly as possible, so that's what I've been doing today. I started...
Because The Night
I was in an experimental mood today. I wanted to try out more of my new Inktense pencil colours, the saddle brown and sepia ink not having been...
Purdey
I wanted to give some of my new inktense pencils a runout, so that's what I'm going today. And with three of those new colours being fleshy...
